Subject: Hi
Hello,
My name is Dala Camling son of Late Dr. Tavares Camling Sr. former personal
assistant on financial matters to the Angolan President. I got your contact
through the internet and decided to write you in trust and confidence. It is
my humble decision to solicit for your understanding and cooperation in this
business that will be mutually beneficial to both of us.
At the mid term of the rebellion which is still on till date, my father
thinking fast decided to send my brother and I out of the country
(Angola),with the sum of US$18 Million (Eighteen million United States
Dollars).The money was meant for the purchase of arms and ammunitions for
the war, but my father had to divert the funds as a way of frustrating the
on-going war that has claimed the lives of millions of Angolan people. The
bills were carefully moved as diplomatic baggage to Madrid , Spain .
Unfortunately, because of my father’s political influence he was
assassinated last December. And as a result of our father's death, we
decided not to return to the country but seek for political asylum and look
for an opportunity to safeguard the money for proper investment and prepare
for our future. We however, discovered that as political asylum seekers, we
are not allowed by law to seek for any gainful employment or open and
operate a bank account.
We therefore need your assistance and co-operation in concluding this deal.
You are needed to come over to Madrid , Spain and open a non-resident
account where the entire funds will be deposited and subsequently transfer
the funds to your nominated account via telegraphic transfer.
The whole arrangement will be strictly under our supervision and the
transaction will be absolutely risk-free. And the transfer to your account
would be completed the same day.
We intend to share the money upon successful completion of the transaction
as follows: - 22% will be entitled to you for your assistance, while 76%
will be for us and 2% will be set aside to take care of expenses.
Should this meet your utmost consideration, kindly write back immediately to
confirm your earliest date of arrival? Please include your contact number.
The confidentiality of this transaction cannot be over emphasized as we
trust and believe that you will oblige us the security and attention it
demands.
Kind Regards,
Dala Camling
